Thought it might interest some to see a short clip of two satellites fly by off the sun's disk in H-Alpha band.

Just having started H-Alpha imaging of the sun I was quite surprised to be able to see them off the sun's disk rather than the more common silhouette across the disk.

No doubt the more experienced h-alpha imagers have seen plenty fly bys in their videos.

Good catch!
It took a few go's till I spotted them, they are faster than I imagined
